F40 Replica... where do you start?
Discussion
Not sure what to say about this really. The little piece of purple prose in the advert really is a piece of genius - look out for it in a publication soon.
Why would anybody want to buy a real F40 (or any Fezza for that matter) when you could own this for a mere £18k? Spool up the turbo and it's bye-bye time... as the blonde in the passenger seat winks her glass eye, waves to you, and flashes a glimpse of the cheese-covered black stumps of her teeth as they go past...
...and then, on arriving at the pub, you can drop to the ground and show the women how many press-ups you can do, and flash off your chunky gold jewelery.
Shame there doesn't seem to be a picture of the instrument panel though. Must have been an oversight. I did enjoy seeing it listed with all the genuine Ferraris though- exactly the right place for it, as anybody considering buying a real Ferrari would no doubt seriously consider taking a look at this first and firmly grasping the opportunity to hear the classic bark of that 'Ferrarified' Toyota engine.

I bet all you enthusiasts who own a real F40 are feeling pretty stupid now... eh? eh?

I agree that ferrari looks very s
t, like most replica's, but i was browsing through the you'll-never-be-able-to-buy-one-of-those section of the classifieds on here and saw these 2 replica's in the lamborgini section :
http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/1187398.htm
And
http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/1250353.htm
And thought to myself they actually don't look that bad at all, probably because they are custom kitt cars and not based on some other model like a MR2 or celica or something.
And for 20-30K you'll have the looks, they probably go as well (with a 3.9 V8 engine) and they are actually affordable to run/insure for the "normal" man. Or am i missing something here ?

I too have looked at the Lambo stuff a good few times in the `never be able to afford section` and seen these. Done a bit of research in the past and you'll want to speak to THESE GUYS about those above. They'll even do you a V12 instead of the V8 as above. t, like most replica's, but i was browsing through the you'll-never-be-able-to-buy-one-of-those section of the classifieds on here and saw these 2 replica's in the lamborgini section :http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/1187398.htm

That truly is one of the biggest pieces of s
t I've seen in a long, long time18k?
Hmmmm........tough choice here - very tidy, low mileage E46 M3 or a car that would look fugly to somebody with severe cataracts and will no dount get attention for all the wrong reasons wherever you go?
Having said that, if I won the Euro I'd buy it and torch the f
ker as a favour to all lovers of Ferrari(Have to say though, the Diablo shown above is pretty damn convincing!)
